I Cant view thumbnail versions of Raw Files (.arw) in finder when i upgraded to Lion.
It worked in Snow Leopard without a problem.
Any Solutions?
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7)
Hi. I have the same problem a while ago and was searching for solution to no avail. I'm using 10.11.6 on MacBook Pro Early 2011. I'm also doing some photo editing using photoshop with my sony raw files in .ARW. and since upgrading, I could not see thumbnails to all of my photos (as icons). Some are showing, some are not.
Here's what I did that worked.
I copied all 5 .ARW files to a new freshly create folder and walah! thumbnails are showing.
I tried cut, it didn't work. I tried moving folder of these RAWs to another folder, it didn't work either.
No thumbnails appear in Finder View as Icon view.
Conclusion: (50% Maybe)
- When you're doing some editing tools with your RAW files, (in my case photoshop, bridge, lightroom) maybe some hidden thumbnail system file may have been exploited, thus resulting to corrupted thumbnails.
- Thus copying it to a new folder, does not copy the hidden thumbnail system file (maybe LOL), thus recreates a new thumbnail for Finder.
